The maxi-single is available in two CD versions and as a 7-inch vinyl with the accompanying poster. As already announced in our interview (Electrified!) in late summer, in addition to the title track "Pornography," it also includes the definitive live cover version of the Billy Idol classic "White Wedding." The 7" disc, besides the poster, also features the track "Tuesday," a killer synth-pop track not found on "City," which alone compels Client fans to buy it. Unfortunately, the accompanying "Pornography" video is questionable, as it once again—almost predictably—bears no discernible connection to the music of the two Client's. But perhaps this is a clever anti-video-airplay strategy by Toast Hawaii/Mute, designed to prevent listeners from overhearing the tracks and thus boost sales. Or perhaps this form of cinematic art simply escapes my comprehension. Perhaps—hopefully—the next single will be "Down To The Uunderground," this time as the A-side, and while they're at it, the "Mute ladies" might even choose a video producer from among the artists themselves.
